Benefits OF the \ Manitoba

Aberdeen News. This people of this
part of Dakota have some reasons to re-
lolce besides the fact that they have
raised an excellent crop. The crop itself
is q grand one, even is grown under the
same circumstances as in past years.
But things are much more favorable
than in the past. The producer is no
longer subject to exorbitant freight
rates to get his grain to o market. He
is no longer at the mercy OF q combina-
sion of elevator 8 and elevator men to keep
the price of wheat at o standstill. He is
no longer compelled TO ship his wheat
to one market and take what the buyers
choose to pay. This hes been the case
during years past, and 1t is now the case
in certain parts of the territory, but can-
trail Dakota has wrenched itself from
this position.
This is not only the case with what ii
has produced, but likewise with what il
consumes, the coal rate having been re.
duced seventy. five cents per ton. The
wheat rate will also be reduced about
two cents per bushel, while the grain OF
| this section will find q two or three cent
| better market than it ever found before
The farmers are also TO be given advan-
tage of the very best kind of a market
in this city-and the prices here will
naturally affect prices in neighboriEe
towns. Seven elevator firms, besides
the mill. will buy upon shis market this
fall, and as each will want all the wheat
it can handle, the market may expect to
be "bulled" here several cents.
ALI this is due in q large measure to
the advent of the Manitoba road init
this city. When 1t came, it gave Aber-
deem the greatest number OF railway
systems of any city in southern Dakota
1t gave the people e Duluth market
which brought the great lakes neare
our door. All this was predicted bsfor'
its coming and the prophecy has beer
fulfilled. This road had the facilities a
